Hi Andrew and thanks for replying so quick,

I'm connecting my drive to a fast Pentium 4 running windows XP... I'm trying to get my hands on an older computer but no luck yet.. you wouldn't think it would be this hard!!

I'm using CPDDiskXP V 1.6 to transfer the files via Windows XP. When I perform the transfers all the tracks in each sector show green which indicates a successful transfer, so I'm now flummoxed!

I've tried running the .COM files on different versions of MESS, but the same problem each time.

I'm providing a link to the .COM files I tranferred that don't run successfully. They include HIGHWAY ENCOUNTER which boots up immediately from disk, it seems to load the intro screen but doesn't go into the main game when selected. If yourself or anybody else could try them out and see if anything more positive happens then I would be very grateful!

Here is the link to my files :-

Thanks for your help!

Hi Mario,

When I transferred my einstein disks I connected a drive from albert
to a spare pentium machine running DOS and transferred everything over.

The only thing that didn't work was ELITE and KONAMI 4 PACK.

I think they both used odd formats to prevent copying.

Does the copy of MESS you are using work with other disks images but
not the ones you have transferred?

Have you asked someone else to try and see if they can read your disk
images?

either the disk images are not transferring OK or the copy of MESS you
are using has issues.
